Our first donation day of 2012 was a huge success. We raised more money than we ever have before to give to our charities. Thank you to everyone who came out and gave generously. We hope you enjoyed the full day of fantastic classes all by Camyoga teachers donating their time. The day finished with a fantastic satsang with Mark Stevens.
All the money you gave is going directly to Camfed, Arthur Rank Hospice, and Freedom from Fistula.
Did you try the cupcakes?
The First Donation Day for 2012 is coming up soon. Right after the new year we will have a full day of classes all by donation. Mark your calendar for this event on January 7. We had posted our first two charities: Circus Starr and Freedom for Fistula. We sought your input for our third charity. With your suggestions we decided on Camfed.
Camfed's Mission:
"Camfed fights poverty and HIV/AIDS in Africa by educating girls and empowering women to become leaders of change. Our goal: To improve the lives of two million children by 2013."
Thank you all for your suggestions and we look forward to seeing you at our donation day!

Yogis flocked to Louise Lloyd's and Mark Stevens' classes at the London Yoga show last weekend. The vibe was upbeat as people from all over joined in the sharing of yoga. Camyoga and Yogiwear were there all weekend spreading the word on Cambridge yoga!
Michael Gannon, having finished his amazing workshops at Camyoga, was there giving instruction on finding the ever elusive bandhas. He demonstrated his bandhas at work with a pick up and lift into handstand!
An inspiring and intriguing collection of booths and retailers kept everyone milling about for the weekend. The Yogathon on Saturday had yogis doing sun salutations for nearly three hours! Camyoga teacher training student Marion Poerio raised money for the rainforest with her yogathon contributions. Well done.
Look for Yogiwear's new collection in Camyoga coming soon. Looking forward to seeing everyone at next year's yoga show.
Donation day this past Saturday was a huge success as we raised £737 for charities! Thank you for your support. The monies are being equally donated to Tiba Africa Foundation, Peace Boat, and Arthur Rank House. Enjoy these pictures from our great day!
